Webinar: From Disconnected to Decisive: Modernizing Healthcare Finance, May 12

Healthcare finance teams are navigating volatile reimbursement models, fluctuating census levels and persistent capital constraints.

But many finance teams are still working across disconnected systems – where all of it rarely aligns. When workforce forecasts, patient demand and financial planning live in separate environments, finance leaders lose the clarity needed to respond quickly.

In this session, healthcare finance leaders and implementation experts share a real world modernization story, what worked, what didn’t and how teams accelerate time to value.

Key takeaways include:

• How finance teams automatically connect census projections, staffing needs and financial forecasts,
• Strategies to quickly adjust models as reimbursement and payer mix change,
• How AI-powered insights explain variances, surface trends and accelerate executive and board reporting, and
• How to align operational, workforce and financial planning to create a continuous view of performance.

Target Audience:

This webinar is designed for senior finance decision-makers, such as:

• CFOs,
• Heads of Finance, and
• VPs Finance

Whitepaper: The Hidden Cost of the Status Quo: Why Healthcare Safety is the Defining Strategic Imperative for 2026

When clinicians worry about their safety, the impact reaches far beyond a single incident. Confidence drops, reporting suffers, turnover rises and operational strain spreads across the organization.

This healthcare safety report shows why best-in-class hospitals are treating safety as a strategic priority. It connects worker safety to workforce retention, trust and operational performance, giving leaders a clearer view of what is driving risk and what can improve outcomes.

The findings are drawn from an online survey of 1,014 healthcare employees across clinical, operational and executive roles. The results are hard to ignore – Nearly 85% of survey respondents have personally experienced a safety incident during their careers. More than 20% (1 in 5) have been involved in incidents that escalated to physical violence, and 76% of healthcare workers consider personal safety a daily concern.

One system that adopted connected safety technology saw violent incidents decline by 30% within six months, while incident reporting increased by 50%.

For leaders focused on sustaining care delivery, this report offers a practical look at how proactive safety programs can support both staff protection and organizational performance.

Download the report to learn:

• How safety affects retention, trust and operational resilience,
• What front-line trends reveal about workplace violence today,
• Where proactive safety programs are driving measurable change, and
• Why reporting culture matters for long-term improvement.

Webinar: Patient GPT: Clinical AI Powering the Rise of Consumerization in Health Systems, May 5

Millions of Americans are already turning to AI tools to understand symptoms and make real-time health decisions, signaling a clear demand for more immediate and accessible care.

To meet that demand, healthcare must shift from a system centered around the provider to one built around patients, with more personalized, connected, and 24/7 access to support.

In this session, K Health’s Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer Ran Shaul and Hartford HealthCare Medical Group President Padmanabhan Premkumar will discuss how PatientGPT is helping define that next phase as a clinically integrated AI system designed to give patients more personalized, always-on guidance, connect them to care, and operate as an extension of the care team. Attendees will see PatientGPT in action, gain a clearer understanding of what modern clinical AI deployment looks like inside a health system, and learn why foundational accuracy, safety, and clinical rigor are essential to building trust and adoption at scale.

This discussion will explore:

• How clinically integrated AI can turn digital entry points into more seamless, patient-friendly paths to care,
• Where clinically trained AI can create value across triage, navigation, and access, and
• Insights from early patient users and how PatientGPT’s clinical rigor is directly impacting patient outcomes.

Webinar: Driving Faster Starts and Clearer Costs in Healthcare Capital Projects, May 5

As capital projects move from strategy to reality, delays, unclear costs and compliance complexity can slow progress and strain already limited resources.

In this session, we’ll discuss managing growing capital demands with tighter budgets and oversight requirements. It offers a practical look at why projects lose momentum post-planning and how to maintain speed without sacrificing control.

Attendees will learn how to:

• Accelerate project starts while maintaining governance and oversight,
• Improve cost visibility earlier to reduce downstream surprises, and
• Build repeatable delivery models across capital portfolios.

Webinar: Why Language Access Remains an Unsolved Systems Problem, May 13

Every health system provides language access, but few can clearly explain how it works across the organization.

When leaders attempt to map their approach, gaps quickly emerge. Workarounds develop in silos, knowledge fails to transfer and system weaknesses are often amplified for patients who use languages other than English.

This session explores why language access remains difficult to standardize and scale, and what it takes to move beyond fragmented efforts. Drawing on experience building a systemwide language access plan and measurement framework at Cincinnati Children’s, speakers outline how communication should function as core infrastructure across care delivery.

Attendees will learn:

• Why language access operations are difficult to define, standardize and improve,
• How communication breakdowns expose broader operational weaknesses,
• What a systems-based approach to language access looks like in practice, and
• Leadership actions to build, measure and sustain language access infrastructure.

Cost: Free

When: Wednesday, May 13, 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
